 VMware, Inc.
3 In the Introduction panel, ensure that Install this operating system is 
selected, and click Continue.
4 In the Windows Easy Install panel, enter your Display Name or Account 
Name, Password (optional), and Windows Product Key.
The entry in the Display Name field (Windows XP and earlier) appears 
in information boxes as the name your Windows software is registered 
to. It is not the Windows user name. The entry in the Password field is 
the password for the windows administrator account only. VMware does 
not provide the Windows Product Key. It is in the packaging for the 
Windows operating system CD/DVD.
5 In the Integration panel, indicate how the new virtual machine should 
handle basic file sharing.
 More Seamless. VMware Fusion shares your Mac’s documents and 
applications with Windows. Files on your Mac that Windows 
supports open in Windows.
 More Isolated. VMware Fusion does not share your Mac’s 
documents and applications with Windows.
6 In the Finish panel, click Finish.
VMware Fusion installs Windows. This process can take up to 45 minutes. 
After installing Windows, VMware Fusion installs VMware Tools and 
powers on the virtual machine.
